The reality is the Leafs have only 9m or so to spend on UFAs, So even Tavares is questionable without others players leaving. Why the Leafs need Nash?

Replace JVR with some offense, but better defense.

I think the Leafs have more cap flexibility then most give them credit for. Could probably use picks/prospects to rid some contracts like Horton and Marleau to get some cap space to sign Matthews/Marner/etc next offseason.

So, many folks don't realize the that the Performance Bonuses and when they when/should be paid, and how Horton's salary is calculated affects the cap. So actually 2018/19 is about the tightest amount of money available.
There were "plenty" of money available for Matthews, Marner, Kapanen Borgman in 2019/20.
Actually if the Leafs wanted to Tavares and maybe he took only 10m or so, the Leafs could do. But it would mean trading Gardiner for instance next season.
It is virtually impossible to get rid of Marleau's contract, he has NMC. The only way it happens if he retires and then it's easy move to rid of the cap hit. But no reason why Marleau should retire. It will be last chance for a Cup.
Horton's contract is impossible to move. While other most other LTIRs are fully insured, a team with big cap room don't mind acquiring this type of player. Horton's LTIR is unique is that it uninsured, and the owners of the Leafs pay 5.25m out of pocket every year to him. No other team want that. That is the reason the Leafs were able to trade Clarkson for Horton years ago. The owner of Columbus didn't want to pay out of pocket 5.25m for Horton, they would rather pay 5.25m for Clarkson and have him play.

We will have little-to-no ELC bonuses for 2019/2020 IF (and only if) we trade Horton. His contract IS tradeable, but we'll have to really sweeten the pot. Add a 1st + prospect/young player or something...

Marleau is going to get paid 1 million in his third season after his bonus in July. His contract will be very tradable IF he agrees to the trade.... A lot can happen between now and then, so we'll see. Regardless... we can probably keep Marleau too if we trade Horton this offseason...

Like i said save the money for matthews


We can afford both... and like I said above, we can probably even do it with Marleau (although it will be tight). Regardless, if Tavares is willing to sign with us in Free Agency, you do it... Its just propper asset management

2019/2020 with Marleau:
Hyman(2.25)-Matthews(10)-Nylander(6)
Grundstrom/Korshkov(0.925)-Tavares(10)-Kapanen(1.5)
Marleau(6.25)-Kadri(4.5)-Marner(6)
Johnsson(1)-Glendenning(1.8)-Brown(2.1)
Extra (0.975)

Rielly(5)-Rutta(3.5)
Dermott(0.863)-Zaitsev(4.5)
Borgman(1.5)-Liljegren(0.925)
Extras (2.75)

Andersen(5)
Sparks(0.75)

+ Kessel 1.2
+ Martin 0.75
+ 2 million ELC bonus carry-over (probably won't have our full 3.7, especially if we trade Horton).

This equals ~ 82 mil <- Realistic cap, especially if it increases to 80mil for next season.

I'll agree the Leafs don't have to use performance bonuses in that year and can carry it on to 2020/21. Horton's contract would not have to show on the opening day roster in 2019/20. I think it's just wishful thinking that Horton's contract can be traded, for a team to pay out 10.5m out of their pocket And wishful thinking that Marleau would retire just when the Leafs might have a chance at the Cup. If he's playing well, he not going to retire.
Now Martin's contract is easily traded in the summer of 2018, when he is owed just 2.5m in real dollars for the next two year combined.
It is the 2018/19 season that is a little tight.....only about 10m in UFA signings, cause PF form two seasons have to included and Horton's salary shown on the opening day roster.
That 13m wouldn't be showing in summer of 2019.
I can't see Nylander signing at 6m on a long term deal or even Marner 6m. And with the cap rising I don't see Matthews settling for Eichel 10m either. I just think the Leafs (or any team) can sign JT if he wants money that squeezes a number of other players of their due. That isn't proper asset management.
